Hi David,
I believe you have done what you are able by disconnecting the image from all profiles. Periodically, all images that are not connected to any profiles are deleted.
Thanks Keith.

Keith is correct. Disconnect the image from all profiles and the picture will be deleted the next time the server runs a clean-up. (Off the top of my head it runs either once a day, or once weekly.)
